The Endless Winter

Mark Harris and Mitch Corbett are two surfers on a mission; to discover how Californian cool arrived on Britain's bracing beaches, and grew from splashy summer fun, to a serious obsession with waves. They'll visit the most iconic surf spots around Britain's 5000 miles of rugged coastline; unraveling how the men and women of their native waters have evolved one of the most unusual and colourful surf scenes on the planet.

Europe is and always has been a traveling surfers dream. Wildly diverse coastlines, curiously "other" cultures and perfect waves: a beguiling mix for those hardy souls who first explored the Old World for surf and adventure. What transpired was an annual winter pilgrimage, from the bitter North to the sunlit South. A quest for perfect waves and life changing experiences in the most culturally diverse continent on the planet. 50 years on, we join a new generation of European surfers as they trace the steps of the pioneering few who first tackled Europe's waves and sculpted it's extraordinary surf scene.
